Are you struggling with a major life transition? Perhaps you have lost someone significant, adopted a child or recently gone through a separation? Are you struggling because issues from your past seem to keep you from fully being the partner, parent or friend you desire to be and you don't know how to change? Or are you a Christian believer yet you struggle with anxiety, anger and depression compounded by guilt because you "shouldn't feel like that"? You are not alone! I have helped many find hope, peace and joy even in the midst of challenging circumstances. You don't have to stay stuck!

Life can feel really heavy at times. We can feel pulled in so many directions: by the people who rely on us, the expectations we place on ourselves, and the responsibilities that come with school, work, family, and simply being human. It’s easy to slip into survival mode and push our own needs to the side. Therapy can be a place to set all of that down for a moment, breathe, and sort through what’s going on inside. Sometimes having someone walk beside you through those ups and downs can make all the difference.

I work with clients across the lifespan navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions. I believe that therapy begins with a trusting, genuine relationship. Clients can expect to work together to gain insight into current patterns and presenting problems, develop self-compassion, and learn tangible tools and strategies to connect insight to action. Children and teens can expect a warm and welcoming environment to explore who they are and navigate their challenges with support, building a strong foundation of mental health awareness and practices to carry into adulthood.

Focused on healing through trauma-informed, body-based care and grounded in family systems theory, I draw on a range of counseling approaches including; psychodynamic, transpersonal, existential, expressive, mindfulness, mind-body, behavioral (DBT and CBT). Together we sojourn toward self-awareness and compassion for self. Emblematic moments from the past may have become conditioned responses to the present. We focus both on here and now and historical events. TAT (Tapas Acupressure Technique), mindfulness, sensorimotor psychotherapy and EMDR-Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing help re-program stored arousal in the body.

Most people arrive at therapy because there is something they want to change about the way things are right now. Together, we will identify what your goals are, what is important to you, and what barriers are stopping you from moving in that direction. We will then collaboratively work to orient the compass of your life in a direction that aligns towards self-fulfillment and steady ground. My practice is a trauma-informed environment where safety and trust are paramount to fostering change and growth.

I’m an eccentric, depth‑oriented therapist who blends radical honesty with a warm, grounded presence. I work with the unconscious, the body, and the patterns you’ve carried for years—often without realizing it. My approach is deeply trauma‑informed and somatically attuned, helping you understand how your story lives in both mind and body. If you’ve ever felt “too much” or misunderstood, this is a space where your complexity is welcomed and your truth can finally breathe.

I work with people who feel stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break—overthinking, anxiety, OCD, or relationship dynamics that keep repeating. Most of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of themselves internally.
You might be dealing with intrusive thoughts, emotional reactivity, or habits that feel automatic and hard to change. A lot of people I work with already have insight into why things are happening—they just don’t know how to actually shift them.

You may look like you’re holding it all together, but inside you’re exhausted. Anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, people-pleasing, and worrying about what others think can leave you questioning yourself and never feeling like enough. You may struggle with boundaries, feel disconnected from yourself, or have lost sight of who you are. Therapy can help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck, reconnect with your needs and values, and build greater confidence, peace, and self-trust. If desired, Christian faith and Biblical truth can be integrated as you explore identity, grace, healing, and your God-given worth.

I am currently accepting new clients! Becca’s passion is to teach people how to be their best selves.
